I think there is a mistake in the dialogue tab section- sometimes when you move the mouse over 敲 it's translated as "to bang" and sometimes its translated as "to tap"

I agree, I need more practice listening and trying to understand explanations in Chinese without English peppered through out it.

Hi, I had a question about this line in the dialogue 你打算考什么学校. It's translated as "what is your plan for university"- is this a literal translation or a more natural sounding one.

Wouldn't it literally translate as "what schools do you plan to test for"? I know about the gao kao and how students get selected based on those scores but do you have to specifically select certain schools you want your gao kao score to apply for?

what might be better the next time is actually having the movers there and the person directing them where to go and take the stuff to get out of the building

this seems really similar to this intermediate lesson http://chinesepod.com/lessons/a-phone-call-to-the-moving-company#sthash.HCDFqOGI.dpbs

John's voice in this lesson sounds really strange. It's like he's not in the same room or something. It just doesn't sound natural unlike connie's and lilliana's.
